Electronic Power Control Warning Lamp






Electronic Power Control Warning Lamp

The Electronic Power Control (EPC) warning lamp ( K132) is also known as the EPC warning lamp.

"EPC" is an abbreviation for Electronic Power Control and refers to the Electronic Power Control system.

When the ignition is switched on, the Engine Control Module (ECM) checks all the components of importance to the Electronic Power Control (EPC).

After switching on the ignition the ECM switches on the Electronic Power Control (EPC) warning lamp (K132). The EPC lamp goes out shortly after starting the engine, if, on the one hand, the ECM does not detect any malfunctions in the EPC system, and, on the other, if activation of the lamp by the ECM is OK.

If a malfunction is detected in the Electronic Power Control (EPC) while the engine is running, the ECM switches on the Electronic Power Control (EPC) warning lamp (K132). (These DTCs are listed in the DTC table). At the same time, an entry is made in the Engine Control Module DTC memory.
